HOWTO arabic

Abstract
--------
This document is about Yudit's Arabic support.
There are a couple of Arabic keymaps; you can select one if
you click on the blue arrow at the toolbar.
Arabic: A transliterated keyboard map.
ArabicKeyboard: a keyboard imitation map.
Let's select Arabic and type in some letters with spaces
in between:
‎ أ ه لاً ب ا ل ع ا ل م!‏
I cheated here: The character ‪U+200E‬ (‪‎‬) at the beginning
is to make this line an English text, with embedded Arabic.
The ‭‏‬ at the end is to keep the ‪!‬ belonging to RL group.
If you take out the spaces we get:
‎ أهلاً بالعالم!‏
Using presentation forms is possible, but not recommended:
‎ ﺃﻫﻼ ً ﺑﺎﻟﻌﺎﻟﻢ!‏
Further Reading:
You should also read HOWTO-bidi.txt by typing ‪howto bidi‬ in the
command window of Yudit.
